Hello, I successfully rooted my Pixel 8 Pro but I am stuck at "Phone is starting" after enabling Zygisk and rebooting. It does boot fine into safe mode tho. What can cause this issue and how can I fix it? Thx a lot!

How do you root it then?

You don't, there's really no reason to root anymore

My post specifically talks about rooting the Pixel 8 Pro, I do not see why you would promote the use of gOS.

Enable the developer options menu by going to Settings ➔ About phone/tablet and repeatedly pressing the build number menu entry until developer mode is enabled.

Next, go to Settings ➔ System ➔ Developer options and toggle on the 'OEM unlocking' setting. On device model variants (SKUs) which support being sold as locked devices by carriers, enabling 'OEM unlocking' requires internet access so that the stock OS can check if the device was sold as locked by a carrier. Connect the device to the computer and install Grapheneos via browser.

You need to boot your device into the bootloader interface. To do this, you need to hold the volume down button while the device boots. After install OEM was lock again.
